Sunpatiens are the best of both worlds of the old fashioned impatiens and New Guinea impatiens. ‘Compact Pink Candy’ is an easy to grow SunPatiens that loves the sun, is not prone to the diseases that bother impatiens and blooms its head off all season long! And the flower color is fabulous too. The large petals are pink, frosted with shades of red and light purple atop beautiful green foliage. It actually reminds me of cotton candy!

This SunPatiens is a workhorse in the garden whether it is in a container or in the landscape. ‘Compact Pink Candy’ SunPatiens is an upright plant growing anywhere from 16-30 inches and anywhere from 14-20 inches wide. Nothing else would be needed except to sit there and enjoy the pollinators stopping by for a snack! And it loves the sun so no worries there.

SunPatiens® Compact Pink Candy Impatiens Care

If planting in a container, a good quality soilless potting mix is ideal. ‘Compact Pink Candy’ will grow from part to full sun. If planting in the landscape, you can use it as a focal point in a garden, use it as a border. Just plant them 18-20 inches apart. Very little maintenance is required on this plant. No deadheading is required because it is self-cleaning. It is heat tolerant and once established it needs just average watering and fertilizing.

Compact Pink Candy flowers continuously from first planting until fall, long after other plants have faded away. It is hardy in Zones 10a-11b. Ideally this is grown in the garden and not indoors.

SunPatiens® Compact Pink Candy Impatiens Spacing

It is the ideal plant to use in containers or as a border in the garden. Because it is so floriferous, you could put 3 plants in a 20 inch container and you would have a massive mound of those gorgeous pink flowers!

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
